This unit investigates places where people live. It introduces the ideas of basic needs, including shelter, as well as food and water and how these needs are met in the places that people live. The children undertake an activity to express their favourite place, which can be real or imaginary. They investigate aspects of their favourite place, considering materials, as well as input from all their senses. Once they have thoroughly investigated their favourite place, the concept of caring for places can be introduced and discussed with respect to their favourite place, as well as homes and school. The Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander relationship to Country/Place is also introduced.
